Extra (2) (Chapter 20-28)

Situ Qingshan forcibly handed the coffee in her hand to Mu Xia, and said, "Sister, you can also try their coffee, I think it's pretty good."

Before Mu Xia could speak, Situ Qingshan suddenly covered her mouth again, looking like she had just thought of it, and said, "I forgot. Sister, you have been staying in the countryside, you must have never had coffee?"

When the sponsor behind him heard this, Na Mo's light when he looked at Mu Xia dimmed a bit.

Haven't even had coffee? And from the countryside...

Such a girl, no matter how beautiful she looks, is not suitable to be their brand ambassador. If netizens know, this ambassador will only bring them a negative impact.

I can't!

Mu Xia didn't care what Situ Qingshan said, she just taste it.

So she took a sip of the coffee and frowned, "It's too bitter."

This coffee smells good, but it tastes too bitter in the mouth. Apart from the bitterness, there is no mellow aftertaste. The quality is not as good as Situ Qingshan said.

Situ Qingshan directly took back the coffee in Mu Xia's hand, thinking that Mu Xia didn't understand coffee.

「A girl from the countryside, how can she know coffee?」

Mu Xia's reaction made Situ Qingshan very satisfied. She turned to the sponsor and said apologetically, "Sorry, sir, it's not that your coffee is not good, it's that my sister is not used to coffee."

The sponsor was even more determined not to consider Mu Xia.

It's not like coffee at all!

He smiled again at Situ Qingshan and said, "It's okay, it's normal if you're not used to coffee. After the ceremony, let's have a good chat about cooperation."

"OK."

"Then I won't disturb a few of you, let's go first." The sponsor nodded to Situ Qingshan and turned to leave.

Situ Hai looked at the sponsor's back thoughtfully.

His second daughter is indeed much better than the eldest daughter.

Afraid of Situ Hai's anger, Mu Xinyue deliberately reprimanded and said, "Shanshan, how can you give your sister coffee in front of so many people?"

Situ Qingshan looked aggrieved: "I forgot for a while..."

Situ Hai waved his hand and said, "Children are always forgetful, but it's Shan Shan, how can you say coffee is bitter in front of other sponsors? What a shame!"

Mu Xia lowered her eyes and apologized, "I'm sorry, Dad, don't be angry..."

"Forget it!" Situ Hai turned his face away impatiently and instructed Situ Qingshan: "It's almost time, you go backstage to prepare. Mom and Dad will watch your performance in the audience."

"Okay, Dad." Situ Qingshan smiled sweetly, waved at Mu Xinyue, and walked backstage with the certificate.

Mu Xia followed Situ Hai and Mu Xinyue to the auditorium.

My Xia don't know if it was intentional or not, she was left far behind by Situ Hai, as if avoiding something dirty, as if she didn't come with him.

This is her father, and she can leave her good father at any time without the value of use!

A sharp, cold light flashed across Mu Xia's eyes, but in just a moment, she could well hide the emotions in her eyes and followed Situ Hai softly.

The ceremony started soon after they were seated.

There were more people present than usual at the ceremony, and the reason was of course that this year's guest, there was an additional Ye Sijue.

Many people robbed their heads for the place in this ceremony, just to have the opportunity to show their face in front of Ye Sijue.

Finally, with the end of the host's introductory speech, the guests came out.

The first one was one of the founders of the Royal Coffee Academy, the second one was a well-known coffee master in the industry, and the third was Rain Evans, who happened to meet Mu Xia on the plane.

The last guest-

"Finally, let's welcome the President of Ye's Group, Ye Sijue!"

As soon as Ye Sijue's name appeared, the audience immediately burst into excited applause.

It can be said that more than half of the audience at the scene came for Sijue Ye.

The cameras were immediately aimed at the backstage exit. After the ceremony, the technology will edit the video and send it to the official blog of the Royal Coffee Institute.

Every year, the video of the ceremony generates a wave of attention.

This year, they invited Ye Sijue to the store, and it is foreseeable that the attention must be unprecedented.

Ye Sijue walk from the steps in the backstage to the front of the stage unhurriedly, bowing to everyone with a light expression on his face.

But when he glanced across the auditorium, he suddenly saw a familiar person.

「Is that... Mu Xia?」

He couldn't help but stop at Mu Xia for two seconds before looking away, and bowed to the audience: "Hello everyone, I'm Ye Sijue."

The applause from below was even more enthusiastic.

Seeing that the audience responded very well, the host stopped Ye Sijue who was about to take the guest seat and said, "Young Master Ye, you see how enthusiastic everyone is, please say a few more words!"

Ye Sijue was about to refuse subconsciously, but when he remembered someone sitting under the stage, he involuntarily agreed to the host's invitation.

He took the microphone again and said, "It's a great honor to be invited by the Royal Coffee Academy to participate in the award ceremony. This time, in addition to awarding certificates to several outstanding colleges, I also want to find an brand ambassador for the global chain of Midnight Coffee Cafés under Ye's Group. , I hope that the next few academies can perform exceptionally well, and I will choose a suitable ambassador from one of you."

These words were transmitted to the ears of the ten members of the Royal Coffee Academy backstage who came to get their certificates through the sound of the scene.

Nine out of ten people are girls. The girls' eyes are shining, as if they are going to the pinnacle of life in the next second.

These words which were amplified by the sound system reached the ears of Situ Qingshan backstage and sent her heart racing. Her eyes lighted up as though she would be accelerating to the highest point in her life within the next second.

Moreover, this ambassador has been looking for a long time, and it is said that the compensation is rich, but I have not found a suitable one.

She wants to enter the entertainment industry. If she wins this ambassador, it will be like a tiger with wings, and her splayed feet will enter the top-notch circle.

Thinking of this, Situ Qingshan tightened her palms and glanced at the other eight girls at the scene.

The Midnight Coffee Café is looking for girls, so the boy is excluded. In this way, her opponents are only these eight.

「And among these eight people, if I remember correctly, there is no particularly outstanding person. I will become the ambassador!」

Once she becomes the ambassador of the Midnight Coffee Café, does she still need to go to that coffee sponsor to be endorsed?

Situ Qingshan directly threw the business card of the coffee sponsor into the trash can, because the ambassador of the Midnight Coffee Café must be her. She didn't like to be the brand ambassador of that coffee at all!

Among these eight people, no one can take the endorsement away from her! Nobody!

At the front stage

The host warmed up the crowd, sent Ye Sijue to his seat, and then invited Rain Evans, the presiding judge of the ceremony, to the stage.

Rain Evans was all smiles, his eyes swept across Mu Xia's direction, then looked around the audience, and said, "Thank you for taking the time to attend the award ceremony, let me introduce the ceremony process. "

"Many people should not be watching our ceremony for the first time, because we post the live video to our official blog every year."

"But unlike usual, this time we have added a new process and a new award. That is, the Super Elite Barista certificate. The ten elite baristas will challenge another Barista from the audience. This is called: Coffee Latte Art Challenge, the elite baristas and the opponents who have performed exceptionally well have the opportunity to get the Super Elite Barista certificate."

"But…"

The audience at the scene and the ten elite baristas at the backstage were very excited after listening to the previous words, because everyone present could more or less have a little coffee latte.

There were even many "elite baristas" in the audience.

When they heard about the opportunity to leapfrog to become a "Super Elite Barista", they were all gearing up to give it a go.

But Rain Evans suddenly turned around, and everyone's expressions became nervous again.

After only listening to Rain Evans pause for two seconds, he said with a meaningful expression: "However, if the ten elite baristas are defeated by their chosen opponents, then this elite barista will not be able to win today's elite barista certificate. Therefore, when choosing your opponent, please be careful to choose."

When Situ Qingshan in the backstage heard this, Mu Xia's face flashed in her mind immediately.

Besides Mu Xia, who else is more suitable to be my opponent?

「Choosing Mu Xia would not only humiliate her, but I would definitely not lose the Elite Barista's certificate. It's like killing two birds with one stone!」

Situ Qingshan rubbed her hands together excitedly, looking forward to the moment when Mu Xia was crushed by her.

After Rain Evans finished speaking about this year's latest rules, he returned to the guest judges' seat in the first row of the audience.

After Rain Evans sat down, he turned his head and nodded to Mu Xia who was sitting a few rows back.

Mu Xia also nodded.

The communication between the two was silent, and no one noticed.

Rain Evans was on the left side of Ye Sijue. With the help of the staff on the stage setting up the coffee table and other tools for Challenge, he dared to talk to Ye Sijue.

"I didn't know in advance that XiaoYe, that you still have to choose the ambassador of the Midnight Coffee Café here. I wonder if you have any special attention or interested candidates among these ten Elite Baristas?"

Ye Sijue shook his head: "No."

But since there is a "Super Elite Barista", he is likely to choose the "Super Elite Barista" who doesn't know who it is as the ambassador.

This is in line with the positioning of a Midnight Coffee Café as an "international high-end coffee shop".

Rain Evans saw that Ye Sijue cherished his words like gold, and he also stopped his hot face and cold buttocks with interest.

Twenty coffee tables were soon set up on site.

Ten Elite Baristas took their seats under the introduction of the host. When Situ Qingshan was introduced, some of the audience below showed their astonishing eyes.

Situ Qingshan originally planned to enter the entertainment industry, and when there was no comparison, her appearance was naturally not much different.

In addition, she asked an expert stylist to paint a makeup look worth six figures today. Compared with the other eight Elite Baristas, she was almost overwhelming.

As soon as Situ Qingshan entered the venue, she felt the hot eyes from below, and she felt extremely proud, like a proud little peacock.

She is even more convinced that the "Super Barista" certificate must belong to her!

The other eight girls present all cast envious or jealous eyes at Situ Qingshan, and the eyes of Situ Qingshan gradually became less friendly.

Girls of this age have never liked their light being blocked by others.

But these jealous eyes made Situ Qingshan feel better about herself. She looked at Ye Sijue intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to see if he looked at her.

She turned her eyes away quietly, and sure enough, Ye Sijue's gaze was also on her.

Situ Qingshan felt her heart beat faster, her ears warmed up, and her whole body's blood seemed to boil.

"Then it's time for the ten Elite Baristas to choose their opponents. Please choose your opponent within three minutes. If you don't choose an opponent, it will automatically be regarded as a challenge forfeit. You can now start to choose , I wish everyone good luck!"
